Would anyone have an interest in a 76 Coachman with a rear bathtub? Not a dry bath separate shower pan but a small real tub. 4 or 5' long sideways across the rear window. Seems like it would hold more than the fresh water tank?

A short 23 with a large rear bath. And then the back of the couch flips over the bottom filling the aisle to make the bed. No where to walk.

I can't see the benefit of this floor plan. But if the layout appeals to someone and they would like a project, I would like to hear from you.

Sorry Gary I forgot email users don't get what the forum provides. I use the forum which has my location, email address and pm messaging available.

I'm in Dallas. I don't have this coach. Just wanted to check the interest in the unusual floor plan if one where available for a fair price.

Would it work for you?

If we are talking about OEM (as upfitted) I would think Midas Crestmount or the Norris. Both have a different bathroom layout than the rear bath Coachman Birchaven that seems to have a slightly larger tub. If modified, all bets are off.

Note: From the pictures I have seen, I suspect there is some kind of relationship between the Norris and Midas/Crestmount.

It is convenient if you have one or two dogs and need to wash them now and again.  And a maximum of two people.  Truly a narrow market.  I have a '76 upfitted by Norris.  I don't think there are very many with the dry tub in the back.
